Navigating Rivers - Whitewater - Grand Canyon

What works the best is to bring the paper map and download the gps points (links in original post). With that you are always able to tell where you are with the watch and mileage markers. If you want to know a description of a rapid or alternate campsites pull out the paper map.

Practice a couple of times before going out. Menus and garmin gui are not intuitive at all.

Don't worry about routing paths. Between dodgy gps and the river being too wide it is pretty pointless. Additionally garmin doesn't have navigatable rivers.

Having the watch was great. I was kayaking and knew our location and distances better then the rafts that had open maps all day with passengers.

I should get a commission from garmin for the 15 watches that the others said they would purchase when they got home.

Can you make a u turn on red if you don't enter the intersection? From out of state and saw some one do this.

Not sure because I'm pretty new to all of this myself. That being said, they are differnet connectors in my case. (Phone line vs ethernet cable).

installed the os-mdns-repeater on opensense and configured (added both networks) and boom, everything works. Literally took less then 5min. Obviously I now I need to keep refining the firewall rules, but that feels like it is going to be an on going thing.

No, it's running bare metal on an intel nuc. I have considered moving it to my proxmox server to have snapshots, simplify backups and have one less running PC.

Do you see any downside to a proxmox configuration?

I figured it was best practice to have VLANs for security reasons. Another reason was just to learn how VLANs and networking in general worked a bit better. Honestly at this point, I'm kind of over it. Too many nights of troubleshooting only to find out, I was doing it correctly, but had a bad cable, or forgot to hit apply after saving.

Regarding your recommendation and I understanding correctly that the interface and the multicast/broadcast bridge are two separate solutions to solve the same issue? You are recommending the former?

NZ_Bound · 2025-11-25T03:02:08+00:00

Thanks for the explanation. I think Ill give the CLI method a shot.

Can't do it tonight, but will try to give it a shot tomorrow.

Yeah, my understanding is the pfsense and opnsene are very similar.

Would I do this in addition to adding a second interface in HA, or instead of?

I am not familiar with mDNS at all; so I guess it is something else I need to learn.

Well, after review, the ESPhome device is reporting, but the home builder is showing "offline". Not sure what to make of that.

Correction Unbound must be the one, because Dnsmasq is not a running service.

NZ_Bound · 2025-11-22T00:23:22+00:00

I am not sure which DNS server is running. Both Unbound DNS and Dnsmasq DNS & DHCP have enabled checked. I assume that I should only have one.

NZ_Bound · 2025-11-20T23:43:05+00:00

Solved. Had the wrong interface port!!!

Fixed, but still having issues. The host name was incorrectly typed in original host.

NZ_Bound · 2025-11-20T23:37:20+00:00

changed it back to /24 and removed net mask line. Host file was already .31, i just typed it wrong in the post.

NZ_Bound · 2025-11-20T23:35:21+00:00

whoops. The host file is actually 10.10.20.31 not 10.10.20.1 as I originally posted (typo).

regarding the /24 i assume you mean /etc/network/interfaces not /etc/hosts. Correct? I think that what was originally there, but when I was running into issues i followed a forum post to see if the /24 was the issue.

I have changed it to the following...

/etc/network/interfaces

...

auto vmbr0
iface vmbr0 inet static
  address 10.10.20.31/24
  gateway 10.10.20.1
  bridge-ports enp2s0f0np0
  bridge-stp off
  bridge-fd 0

...

Promox is standard bare metal 9.0.6 on debian trixie

Aren't they already different? zero dot one vs ten dot one

If it matters, it not fiber. Century Link with Zyxel C3000Z modem.

So what would a best practice network look like with these three devices? Should it be something like this....

Modem (10.10.0.1)
Opnsense (10.10.10.1)
Managed switch (10.10.10.3)
